APPENDIX A
Optional Checklist for Determination
Of Whether a Facility is Categorically Excluded
PA2021-122
FCC/LSGAC Local Official's Guide to RF
Optional Checklist for Local Government
To Determine Whether a Facility is Categorically Excluded
Purpose: The FCC has determined that many wireless facilities are unlikely to cause human
exposures in excess of RF exposure guidelines. Operators of those facilities are exempt from
routinely having to determine their compliance. These facilities are· termed "categorically
excluded." Section 1.1307(b)(l) of the Commission's rules defines those categorically excluded
facilities. This checklist will assist state and local government agencies in identifying those
wireless facilities that are categorically excluded, and thus are highly unlikely to cause exposure
in excess of the FCC's guidelines. Provision of the infonnation identified on this checklist may
also assist FCC staff in evaluating any inquiry regarding a facility's compliance with the RF
exposure guidelines.

EVALUATION OF CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION
12. Licensed Radio Service (see attached Table 1): Personal Communications Services
13. Structure Type (free-standing or building/roof-mounted): _F_re_e_-s_t_an_d_in_,,g.___ ______ _
14. Antenna Type [omnidirectional or directional (includes sectored)J:_O;;;..;mc.c..;..;._;_ni'-------
15. Height above ground of the lowest point of the antenna (in meters): -----=2=2=.0ac...=9 ______ _
16. ~ Check if all of the following are true:
(a) This facility will be operated in the Multipoint Distribution Service, Paging and
Radiotelephone Service, Cellular Radiotelephone Service, Narrowband or Broadband
Personal Communications Service, Private Land Mobile Radio Services Paging
Operations, Private Land Mobile Radio Service Specialized Mobile Radio, Local
Multipoint Distribution Service, or service regulated under Part 74, Subpart I (see
question 12).
(b) This facility will not be mounted on a building (see question 13).
( c) The lowest point of the antenna will be at least 10 meters above the ground ( see question
15).
If box 16 is checked, this facility is categorically excluded and is unlikely to cause exposure in
excess of the FCC's guidelines. The remainder of the checklist need not be completed. If box
16 is not checked, continue to question 17.
17. Enter the power threshold for categorical exclusion for this service from the attached Table 1
in watts ERP or EIRP* (note: EIRP = (1.64) X ERP):
18. Enter the total number of channels if this will be an omnidirectional antenna, or the
maximum number of channels in any sector if this will be a sectored antenna:
19. Enter the ERP or EIRP per channel (using the same units as in question 17)·~ ------1
20. Multiply answer 18 by answer 19._· --------------------1
21. Is the answer to question 20 less than or equal to the value from question 17 (yes or no)?
If the answer to question 21 is YES, this facility is categorically excluded. It is unlikely to cause
exposure in excess of the FCC's guidelines.
If the answer to question 21 is NO, this facility is not categorically excluded. Further
investigation may be appropriate to verify whether the facility may cause exposure in excess of
the FCC's guidelines.
